"The student has been really enjoying learning more about Geometry. We have covered clocks and will move onto more complex concepts within that subject at our next session."

"The student said he had a quiz in English tomorrow about writing an essay. I helped him as much as I could. Then we worked on math where he has a quiz also. I gave him 6 practice problems and he could do them all and got them correct. He then finished his next science homework which he completed with no trouble. He told me that he got a 30 or 40 on his unit test from last week. I told him that he did great and he was pleased."

"Tonight the student worked on writing expressions from word problems and he also practiced setting up equations from word problems and solving for unknowns. He was able to accurately set up the expressions with 80% accuracy when he drew a depiction of the problem or was able to visualize the expectation. He felt pretty confident that with continued practice that he would be able to improve his accuracy to greater than 80%. I left him with pdf copies of additional problems."

"We reviewed quadratic functions and made sure that the student could solve multi-stepped problems on his own. I also prepared a list of test taking strategies and tips to help him with his make-up exam tomorrow. I asked him to inform me of his grade from his make-up exam so I know the areas he still needs improvement in."

"We covered basic algebra, order of operations, and fractions. We are going over a review sheet together to better prepare the student for a test he has this next week. I assigned some problems for him to do that I am going to check tomorrow in another session."

"The student is working on the ANOVA test and population proportion test. She is focused on p value, significant level, and understanding other terminology and solving processes. She has a better understanding of the concepts after repeatedly asking questions and seeking answers."

"Today, we covered graphing equations, powers, absolute values, and simple interest. I left the student as a homework 8 problems that are meant for him as a general review"

"Today, the student and I went over polygon labels, integer operations and unit conversion. She did very well with the polygon labels, but she had some difficulty with integer operations. The negative signs threw her for a loop, but I taught her a song to help her remember, and it helped. "

"The student finished writing her story, focusing on maintaining the organization of the outline and showing instead of telling. I also highlighted the mechanical errors in the story, and we will work on this next time. "

"On Saturday, we worked through as many incomplete math problems on the student's review sheets as we could. During the break and while he was doing reading, I wrote up a "reminders" sheet with some practice problems that addressed the three or so main problems I saw him having with the math work. After we completed going through the chapter 3 questions in 1984, we reviewed the "reminders" sheet that I made. I told him it was probably a good idea to write out all steps and all parts of the equations he is working with, (rather than just the numerators, for instance) because it would help his teacher follow his work and might help him avoid simple errors. I will reiterate this next time. "

"It was so nice to meet the student and her family. I had her read to me, and she did very well with trying to pronounce words. We skimmed the surface on a variety of topics in reading, including contractions, capitalizing titles, parts of speech, exclamation marks, and vocabulary. She seemed very interested and honest when asking about unknown definitions and, therefore, I think her vocabulary will improve greatly with minimal practice. In terms of reading comprehension, I almost feel as though she is so smart and creative that she might be reading while also imagining her own story at the same time. We will continue to summarize after each paragraph and at the end of the story in order to help make sure she is focused on the story being read. Per the reading standards, one of my goals is to read different types of stories. So far, we read a short fictional book and some nonfiction biographies. I am already looking forward to next Friday!"
